520    A cri de cœur or fully imagined poem on the myth and 
       history of Jerusalem/Al-Quds from the author revered as 
       the greatest living Arabic poet At the age of eighty-six, 
       Adonis, an Arabic poet with Syrian origins, a critic, an 
       essayist, and a devoted secularist, has come out of 
       retirement to pen an extended, innovative poem on 
       Jerusalem/Al-Quds. It is a hymn to a troubled city 
       embattled by the conflicting demands of Jews, Christians, 
       and Muslims. Adonis's city, as a coveted land, ought to 
       suggest the universal love of humanity; as a land of 
       tragedy, a place of contending history and beliefs, and a 
       locus of bitterness, conflict, hatred, rivalry, and blood.
       Wrapping multiple voices, historical references, and 
       political viewpoints within his ecstatic lyricism, Adonis 
       has created a provocative work of unique beauty and 
       profound wisdom, beautifully rendered in English by award-
       winning poet Khaled Mattawa.
